My Best Failure

Textbook publishers are not the most imaginative bunch. As a finance major at Ball State and later while obtaining my CFA, about 25% of the finance books had pictures of the New York skyline on them. Many focused on the World Trade Center. They jump started my ambitions. I promised myself that I'd get that first high paying job in New York and someday work at the World Trade Center. My fallback position was Chicago.

I didn't make either.

I failed.

Thank God.

Stay You.
